About Stacy
Stacy Freeland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and depression. She frames clients as the experts on their own stories and uses a supportive, strengths-based approach to guide change. Stacy aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable.
She talks through practical strategies for coping with difficult feelings and urges. She also works with people facing relationship strain, grief, intimacy concerns, sleep and eating issues, and challenges around parenting.
Background and approach
Her work draws on methods that help people notice what matters to them and take small, clear steps toward those values. She uses exercises that change unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Mindfulness and motivation-based techniques are woven into sessions to keep progress realistic and steady.
With four years of clinical experience, Stacy has supported people through life transitions, burnout, and care-related stress. She also addresses concerns like ADHD, bipolar mood challenges, and chronic health-related stress when they come up in sessions. Stacy meets people where they are and emphasizes collaboration.
Sessions focus on immediate coping, longer-term goals, and practical tools parents can use in daily life. Her aim is to empower clients to find clearer routines, stronger boundaries, and better emotion regulation. Therapy is delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, and scheduling follows a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Blending practical therapies for online parenting support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful when parenting stress or life changes make it hard to stay consistent with goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going, which can help with anxiety, mood shifts, and sleep or eating difficulties.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Stacy will collaborate with each person to pick approaches that match their needs, goals, and preferences rather than using a single fixed method. That means sessions can shift between skills training, values-based work, and motivational conversations depending on what is most useful at the time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy family schedules. Video calls let people use visual cues during conversations, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options aim to increase flexibility so parents can access help around work, caregiving, or other daily demands.
